When doing `apt upgrade` on my Debian machine, I saw that two packages was being held back. The reason cited was that the names had somewhat changed I think. It is worth noting that I'm running bullseye, so this might not be applicable to buster, which is the version documented here.

------------

If you want to use ZFS as your root filesystem, see the `Root on ZFS`_
|
|
links below instead.
|
|
|
|
ZFS packages are included in the `contrib repository
|
|
<https://packages.debian.org/source/zfs-linux>`__. The
|
|
`backports repository <https://backports.debian.org/Instructions/>`__
|
|
often provides newer releases of ZFS. You can use it as follows.
|
|
|
|
Add the backports repository::
|
|
|
|
vi /etc/apt/sources.list.d/buster-backports.list
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: sourceslist
|
|
|
|
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports main contrib
|
|
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports main contrib
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
vi /etc/apt/preferences.d/90_zfs
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: control
|
|

|
|
Pin: release n=buster-backports
|
|
Pin-Priority: 990
|
|
|
|
Install the packages::
|
|
|
|
apt update
|
|
apt install dpkg-dev linux-headers-$(uname -r) linux-image-amd64
|
|
apt install zfs-dkms zfsutils-linux
|
|
|
|
**Caution**: If you are in a poorly configured environment (e.g. certain VM or container consoles), when apt attempts to pop up a message on first install, it may fail to notice a real console is unavailable, and instead appear to hang indefinitely. To circumvent this, you can prefix the `apt install` commands with ``DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive``, like this::
|
|
|
|
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt install zfs-dkms zfsutils-linux
